Architecture College Trips & Tours to Dubai

Dubai’s rapid transformation over the past few years means that it is a fascinating destination for architecture students. Pride of place is the Burj Khalifa, a feat of engineering. Equally impressive are other skyscrapers such as the Burj Al Arab and the Al Fattan Tower. The Dubai Marina is the world’s largest man-made marina and features a further six towers.

Dubai is also home to one of the most ambitious developments ever attempted, the Palm Jumeirah. A man made archipelago that is large enough to be seen from space and is being heralded as the 8th wonder of the world.

The building techniques required to construct these major architectural projects mean that a student trip to Dubai has a lot to offer, giving students the chance to see real life examples. They will also be able to see how the modern projects have changed Dubai and explore its history in the Dubai Museum.
